[quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately I did have a relative who behaved similarly in the early stages. The early stages magnified personality traits that were already there. She was always frugal, but then started not being able let go of things like a half finished can of soda or a couple spoonfuls of food, etc. Also, even though she was normally self absorbed it became almost like she could only think about herself. It wasn't until years later that she started having memory issues. In retrospect, I think early signs were her losing the ability to have sound judgement and empathy -- which admittedly she wasn't great at even at her prime. I hope you can get a neuro evaluation, but it sounds like it will be tough if she refuses.[/quote]
